I made a professional video of a family reunion yesterday for a family that gets together once every 5 years and lives in different countries. They all departed today and while editing the video I erased the entire file. After completing breaking down and crying, I called a friend aka: computer buff, whom had heard of your product and he guided me through the very easy purchase, download of your restoration product and complete retrieval of my erased photos from my digital memory card. I had my video back within minutes. This product is a lifesaver!

Thank you.

I just wanted to thank you for your great software. I just had the arrival
of my first child this past Saturday and spent all weekend taking videos
and capturing the moment. Once I arrived home I attempted to copy the files
over to my home PC to save and distribute to family and friends and I
somehow lost about half my videos that were on my flash stick. These
videos were the ones of my son (Calvin) just entering the world and I
looked everywhere (temp files, etc) and could not find any of the videos.
I googled and found your website and within 10 minutes of realizing what I
had done I was able to recover all my videos.
